Jenny's Cheeseburger Bake by As Noted By Me Life lately? We are team quick dinners. I love a slow simmer moment as much as anyone, but some weeks… dinner needs to be fast, family-friendly, cozy, and something everyone actually cheers for. And this one right here? Ohhhh this one delivers. Introducing… my sweet friend Jenny's Cheeseburger Bake . A little knock-off, but in the MOST complimentary way possible, because it truly tastes just like your favorite fast food cheeseburger. You know the one. :) It has all the nostalgic comfort we crave… layered with a tiny bit of at-home pride because you made it in your own kitchen. And trust me when I say, the flavor is IDENTICAL. This is the kind of recipe that saves a Tuesday. The kind of recipe that gets eaten in full. The kind of recipe that keeps busy family life moving forward with full bellies and no complaints. Serve it with: • pickles on the side (duh) • ketchup drizzle over the top • extra yellow mustard for the team mustard people I’ll share the full recipe below and I know you'll be making this on repeat, just like me. Fast. Familiar. Fun. As Noted By Me (and Jenny) -Josie

All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker This was one of the most emotionally devastating books I’ve read in a long time but I still loved every minute of it. Chris Whitaker doesn’t just write characters, he builds lives. The mystery kept me turning pages, but it was the heart of this book that left me breathless. As Noted By Me I cried. Like, real tears. It’s a book about trauma, survival, and the hard beauty of connection. I highly recommend reading this one with a cup of tea and a quiet afternoon. Coming next month: Let’s time-travel to 1914 Paris, where love and war unfold in letters.

The Wedding People by Alison Espach This book surprised me in the best way. What I expected was a quirky wedding weekend—what I got was a layered, character-driven novel about identity, loneliness, and the messiness of adulthood. It was funny, wistful, and weirdly comforting. As Noted By Me I found myself underlining lines like I was back in school. Espach just gets  the ache of not knowing who you’re supposed to be. And maybe the best part? Realizing you’re not alone in that feeling. Coming next month: Mystery, loss, and a search that spans years. Brace yourself for a hauntingly beautiful story…
